Hello my beloved boys and girls from TNC! The person that loves giving out some spookyhugs, yes me, jaccie is here ready to host the second edition of the walrus!!!
First off i would love to give a huge s/o to trace for bringing this amazing and funny game to our community and thank him his big work on the first edition!
A Walrus is a song competition in which the person running the Walrus sets up an x amount of categories (usually somewhere between 6-12 but on my case it'll be 10), anyone who wants to enter submits one song for every category. The person running the Walrus then judges the songs submitted to each category and reveals their scores category by category.
The reveals usually happen in their respective thread and/or on a Discord server, though in this case I will do both a live reveal on the "The Newbie Club" official discord and post the results in this thread. And this time the judge is... me!! who would have thought it right? x) I hope you guys don't hate me much for my taste tho! <3
To help you guys, I'll also post 3 songs within the category so you have a rough idea on what I like. For the record, you can submit any kind of songs as long as it fits in the category!
With that said, these are all the categories, hope you are ready for older categories but also newer ones that i'm bringing too you guys!
